My wife is an absolute Rock Star. Let me tell you why! After starting out her day not able to take a deep breath and vomiting; in so much pain she needed extra pain medication; going through a battery of tests (abdominal CT & Chest/AB/Pelvis CT with contrast) and topping it off with her first round of Radiation, guess how she closed out her evening????????
Doing THREE laps around the oncology ward (she could have done more but I made her stop); ate a good meal and kept it all down; and finished DANCING OUR WEDDING SONG with me. No there were no twists, turns, or flips like the Oxfords (Scott and Michelle you 2 rock), but I’m sure it was only because she had all the tubes holding her back and me as her partner. :)
But on a more serious note she truly is amazing and she continues to show me and all of the people in the oncology unit just that. Everyone here is amazed and drawn to her, from doctors, to nurses, to transport workers, to nurses assistants. They come to her room, they stop her in the halls as she’s carted throughout the hospital, and they wave her down as she does her laps.
There’s just something about MY WIFE and OUR GIRL and we should all consider ourselves honored and privileged to have her in our lives! I know I definitely do and I thank God for her daily!
Robynns Adoring Husband!

Brian there is something to say for a person who gets mt butt out of bed, in the wee hours of the morning, to do something so foreign to me called exercise. How I would love to be lapping the halls with her listening to all of her stories! Big huggs to you both!

Hi guys,
You are both so lucky to have eachother. From heart-shaped pizzas to color-coordinating on valentines day, you are truly made for eachother. Not everyone is so lucky to have met and married their true one and only....
Love, Stina

I don't believe I have ever met you but I am so happy to hear my friend has a man as wonderful as you. It really shows that God paired the two of you with a true image in mind.
Robynn~
I am so proud of you and to know you. You have changed so many lives just by you being you! It is so wonderful to see that you are still bringing happiness to people's lives.
Song fingers to you girl! You are the best!
I am going to sleep now and I will say another prayer for your continued strength.

Hello "Rockin Robynn"...
You GO GIRL...dancing down the hospital halls with YOUR Man!!! THAT's THE GIRL we know & love!!!
Want to let you know that you have some POWERFUL prayers being sent God's way. ALL of my friends, from my RED HAT group to my Book Club...from my Bunco group, to my Dizzy Dames (yes, a bunch of old brawds that meet once a month to play dominoes) are praying for you.
Some of these ladies met you at Holten's & Destyn's 1st Bday party last year! They remember your beautiful SMILE (well who wouldn't???)
Robynn, I want to thank you for being such a precious gift to Raina...she loves you so very much!!! She updates me on your daily progress and so it is that I keep you close to my heart.
The prayers will not stop....
Love,
Lorraine
Come on Joan, fess up! Zeus? Seriously... I am still in an amazed fog of disbelief!

Brian & Robynn,
So awesome that you are both rockin' the joint!
"Every rock and stone shall sing!!!..."
Brian,
Thank you so much for your incredibly touching and heartfelt words. They truly were uplifting and brought not only tears, but smiles!
Earlier this evening I was listening to some music and a song came on that made me think of Robynn. It's what so many of us have been encouraging her to do; hold on, she'll make it through; she's not alone! It was perfect! In any case, it's by Avril Lavigne, and it's called "Keep Holding On". If you have the chance listen to it. After reading your blog; this song isn't just for Robynn, it's for both of you! In fact, it's for all of us. Thought it might also be a good song to add to Robynn's play list. The lyrics are below. . .
You’re not alone, together we stand
I’ll be by your side, you know I’ll take your hand
When it gets cold, and it feels like the end
There’s no place to go, you know I won’t give in
(Ahh, ahh)
No I won’t give in
(Ahh, ahh)
Keep holding on
Cause you know we’ll make it through, we’ll make it through
Just stay strong
Cause you know I’m here for you, I’m here for you
There’s nothing you can say (Nothing you can say)
Nothing you can do (Nothing you can do)
There’s no other way when it comes to the truth
So - keep holding on
Cause you know we’ll make it through, we’ll make it through
So far away, I wish you were here
Before it’s too late, this could all disappear
Before the doors close, and it comes to an end
With you by my side I will fight and defend
(Ahh, ahh)
I’ll fight and defend
(Ahh, ahh)
Yeeah, yeah
Keep holding on
Cause you know we’ll make it through, we’ll make it through
Just stay strong
Cause you know I’m here for you, I’m here for you
There’s nothing you can say (Nothing you can say)
Nothing you can do (Nothing you can do)
There’s no other way when it comes to the truth
So - keep holding on
Cause you know we’ll make it through, we’ll make it through
Hear me when I say when I say I believe
Nothing's gonna change, nothing's gonna change destiny
Whatever's meant to be will work out perfectly
Keep holding on
Cause you know we’ll make it through, we’ll make it through
Just stay strong
Cause you know I’m here for you, I’m here for you
Love you guys! Sweet dreams and God bless you both.
Dear Bwwwyyyan!!!
This is Judy Lee talking to you. You are so special. I remember when you and Robynn were going to get married. But first, I have to go back a little. When i met Robynn, she had just dumped so Joe Schmoe. I don't recall his name. But, how smart she was at such a young age to know that 'you da man" she needed to be with. Smart girl! You certainly were the better choice. I am so happy that she chose you and that you chose her. Perfect match, and truly one made in heaven. No one has to tell you to stand by your wo-man. What God has put together let no man pull apart. i admire you.
....Robynn, keep kicking the ass out of that monster until you have succeeded with a TKO baby. I love you both. My thoughts are with you both, and I stand with you through this fight as do many.
Love - Judy Lee - Chocolate Chip
Brian,
That Awesome woman has an awesome man! Stay strong. You both ROCK!!!
Hugs,
Nicole
God Morning:o)
It's a beautiful new day and I have been thanking God for the miracles that we continue to see and the ones that are still to come. Robynn, my inspiration, I'm praying you will have additional strength today to make even more strides to recovery. Lord we invite you into our day; continue to work your mercy and grace in Robynn and Brian in all they will face today. They are true soldiers; brave and courageous!
Today's scripture:
Whatever things are ture, noble, just, pure, lovely, of good report, having virture, or anything praiseworthy, let him (us) think on these things.
Philippians 4:8
Continue seeing yourself completely healed. . . on your girls vacation, playing with your incredible children, playing Bunco ;o), going on a night on the town with your wonderful man!! It's on its way!!!!!!
Love you ~ Stay Strong ~ Stand ~ Keep Holding On ~ SMILE~~~~~~~
I begin my day with prayers that you and all of your family remain strong & are wrapped in Gods love.
You both are great. I sit here in tears and smiles and continue to draw believe it or not from YOUR strength.
I hope you had a peaceful night.
Brian you are absolute gift to Robynn.
Keep up the fighting!
Love, Darcy
Brian,
Thanks for being the MAN you are, great father to Brady and Hailey, strong, supportive and protective husband and BEST friend to Robynn. God Bless all of you.
Chris
Brian...you and Robyn are a symbol of what true love and marriage is all about.
You are both amazing!!!!!!!!
Amber
So glad that she was able to consume a meal and keep it down, as well as,have you by her side to bring her joy. She's one tough lil'cookie and that's what we love about her!
Prayers & friendship,
Jilly Grover-West
Robynn and Brian,
Both of you are amazing! You continue to show the world what it means to "great". You, your family, and your friends have really set an example of the way people should be in this world. I'm honored to say you are my friends and to meet (at least in a blog) the network of people who care about you.
All Our Love,
Todd & Family
Robynn, you are truly amazing and we all know exactly what Brian is talking about when he says that people are drawn to you. Your courage through out this process is inspirational!
We miss you and I can't wait you see you outside washing your car when I am driving to work in the morning!
See you soon.
Lindsay
